For people who enjoy mechas, fast-paced action, first person shooters, and Attack on Titan, Titanfall 2 is the game for you. Despite decent sales for the franchise, Respawn, the developers of the game, continue to pump out new and free content for the series. The new game type will be a Players vs Environment (PvE) called Frontier Defense. Fans of the first game will remember it from the original. The update will release July 25th which includes more maps, Titan Upgrades, and a free weekend to play.
Frontier Defense:
A four player cooperative mode. Your task is to protect the harvester from 5 waves of enemies. Like every horde mode, you’ll earn currency to purchase traps, upgrades, and abilities unique to the mode. There are 4 levels of difficulties: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Master. Insane can be considered one but it’s a feature mode.
There will be 5 maps for the game mode: Homestead, Forwardbase Kodai, War Games, Rise, and Blackwater Canal. Rise is the new map from the previous Titanfall game. There will also be unique upgrades to your Titan and Aegis Ranks exclusively for this mode. If you buy the in-game paint job with real money, you’ll receive double XP until August. 28th.
If you’re interested, the trailer is below. I’m a huge fan of Titanfall 2 and I highly recommend it if you’re a fan of fast-paced shooters.
